How Far in Advance to Book Dive Courses on Koh Tao [Peak vs Low Season]
Planning your dive certification on Koh Tao but unsure how far ahead to book? The answer depends on when you're traveling. During peak season (November–April), you'll want to reserve 1–2 weeks ahead to snag your preferred instructor and schedule. During low season (May–October), you can often book just 3–5 days in advance. This guide walks you through the booking timeline for every scenario—whether you're traveling solo, with a group, or around a holiday—so you never miss your ideal course.
